John gave Sophia a few more glances before turning around and following Robin to the refrigeration cabinet.
Sophia could vaguely hear John and Robin chatting about what desserts and drinks would suit each other as she stood behind the counter.
From the side, Sophia noticed that John looked colder now. He looked different from how he was in the past.
She felt like the way John looked now would probably scare people away, and girls wouldn’t want to go after someone like this.
Sophia didn’t know if she was blinded in the past, but she just found people like John very attractive.
I guess there was something really wrong with my taste.
After Robin finished packing up the meals, John came over to pay.
However, Sophia refused to accept his money. “It’s on the house. Since you’ve helped me so much in the past, I won’t be charging you for these.”
John didn’t hesitate as well. “I’ll be supporting your business more in the future, then.”
Right after, he nodded at Sophia and left.
Sophia stood behind the counter as she thought to herself, John seems really different from how he was before today.
At one point back then, he was shameless and slow to understand, but he doesn’t act like that anymore.
It seems like he went back to how it was when he didn’t love her.
Sophia smiled a little at that. That’s good.
It’s better like this anyway. There wouldn’t be anything between them anymore.
After John drove away, Robin walked over. “Hey, did Mr. Constance come over for you?”
Hearing the question, Sophia snorted. “Why would he come over for me? I haven’t been in contact with him for a long time already. He probably came over to buy some stuff because he was passing by.”
Robin nodded before she pouted. “You’re right. I’ve never seen the two of you contacting each other, although I’m with you every day.”
Robin lowered her tone before she turned around to Sophia. “I almost wanted to ask him when he would be able to find the mastermind behind this. However, I thought about it later on and realized that he had no obligation to help us, so I didn’t ask him in the end so that I don’t sound so immature.”
Sophia chuckled when she heard Robin. Yeah. John really didn’t have any obligation to help her.
After the morning rush hour, Sophia went for her driving lesson since there weren’t many customers during the noon.
When the driving lesson ended in the afternoon, she took a cab back to her shop but ended up stuck in a traffic jam and stopped in front of a mall.
Pondering for a moment, Sophia decided to get out of the cab and head to the mall to get some stuff.
The male and female apparel were located on the second and third floor of the mall respectively, so Sophia took the escalator up.
Right after Sophia got off the escalator, she turned around and ran into Matilda.
Matilda just bought some stuff and was standing in front of a shop while being on the phone.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Returning EX (John and Sophia)
So what happens to Ian and Cindy. Is she/ or does she get pregnant? Do they go back to the city and Ian works with Logan? Does Aurora stay in the entertainment industry or return with Ian? Terrible ending, who cares if Aurora was drinking/drunk with colleagues. What happened with Ian and Cindy?!...
Get rid of Gary. Apparently Cindy is too dumb to figure out his motives 😡...
Why are you trying to break them up when they just got together and are a loving couple. Let them stay close and move back to their true friends, Logan, Lola, John and Sophia!...
Sure hope Ian pulls his head out of his behind and works this out with Cindy. His brother needs him at the company and neither one of them truly like the celebrity life. Sophia and Lola will love her …....
I can’t wait for John to take down the Bailey’s including Isabelle so he, Sophia, William and Matilda can live in peace. Introduce Yolanda to Richard so they are out of the picture....
Ugh, don’t break up Sophia and John… they belong together and Sophia is just stubborn for no reason...
Sophia lives John, he just needs to tell her he loves her and get on with their life and family. Too much interference from others....
Sophia is so stupid....
John needs to man up, tell his mother and Isabelle to take a flying leap and confess to Sophia that he made a horrible mistake in divorcing her. This story is taking too long and once again, the bitches are looking like they are on the right side. Awful...
